I am waiting for results from my bloodwork to see if I am Celiac. I should know the first of next week. My son is gluten and casein intolerant and it looks like I might be right in there with him. Is there a cookbook that you guys use that is a good cookbook for Gluten-free Casein-free folks? Is there a website?

I can't recommend any cookbooks. All the cookbooks I buy I put aside and never use. Gluten free cookbooks seem to cost a heap, and are few and far between.

What I do is read magazines, newspapers, and when I see things that I like, I make a note of them, and any changes that might be needed. You will be surprised how many main meals in the general mags are gluten free, even probably in your old recipe books.

It gets a bit tricky when you are looking for treat foods. But I find quite a lot of recipes you can just substitute the flour for gluten free. There are cake recipes that use oil instead of butter, which is good, and I love them.

I wish you luck in finding that book. All the ones I seem to see are from overseas, and probably not to relevant to NZ.

Actually, there's plenty of Gluten-free Casein-free recipes out there, which Google can help locate.

Here's some places I have bookmarked:

Of course, there are a number of recipe threads here on the board, so searching the appropriate forum should turn up a bunch of them.

What sorts of things are you looking for? Check your library. I modify my own recipes and also the gluten-free ones.

Thank you! I think the hardest thing is learning what things to look for in foods. There are so many different types of flour - how do you know which one to use?

With all the weird things I've had going on with my body since the first of the year, I'm actually looking forward to changing my diet. I had a hysterectomy last September and in April 2006, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's. Since April I've gone from hypo to hyper - I 've had to drop my medicine twice. If I change my diet maybe it will continue to drop to where I don't have to be on Levoxyl anymore.

As for recipes, I don't know. I love food! Gumbo, pizza, chicken, beef, veggies --- all of it. I will look at all these chats and see if I can't find some good recipes as well as look at those cookbooks at Amazon.

I bought two cookbooks off Amazon. One by Carol Fenster... something like Gluten Free 101 and then another by Betty Hagman. I use the Fenster one so much that it has fallen apart. (Try the breadsticks!!!!) The only problem with making your own gluten-free food is that you have to buy so many flours/mixes to use. I bought some glass canisters and have lables on them telling me what it is. Once you gather all you need, then everything is at your finger tips and it gets pretty easy. If you told me 5 years ago that I'd have xanathan gum and cornstarch in my cabinet, I wouldn't believe you. I love cooking now!

Good luck!

There is no single answer. It all depends on what you're making, and personal preferences of course.

Anyway, I nearly forgot that this very site has a bunch of recipes too:

epicurious.com also has gluten free recipes and you can choose what else to leave out of the search. Click on the advanced recipes or something like that to get to the area that you can search for gluten free ones.

I definitely second the epicurious site and the gfutah site. I also like some of bette hagman's recipes (don't know if i'd recommend buying though) and The Gluten free bible (a controvercial book here in the forums) has some great recipes, but not lots. I would also check out allrecipes and cooks.com. Lots of my naturally gluten-free cooking I do using betty crocker or foodnetwork.com recipes (rice, veggies, potatoes, etc). Another site i like is helpforibs.com. The moderator, heather, has come up with some great recipes, and the forum has some creative cooks. A few have gluten-free diets as well. Good luck!

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By trents · Posted

      Your DGP-G is also high. The thing to do now would be to trial the gluten-free diet for a few months to see if there is improvement in symptoms.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Roses8721! How long were you off gluten before getting the celiac blood testing done? The testing is not valid after having been gluten free for a significant period of time. Many of your symptoms align with celiac disease.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      Hello, I am feeling frustrated. I have hEDS and lifelong digestive issues but my GI PA is very focused on my celiac panel and I just want to make sure that she should be focused on that because completely changing my diet seems to have worsened my symptoms.  Symptoms are constipation, diarrhea, and acid reflux with spicy foods and certain foods like tomatoes, bell peppers, and onions. I also don't have a gallbaldder as it was removed almost a year ago. This also exacerbated my symptoms. I did have joint pain from hEDS but that was already treated with low dose naltrexone about 4 months prior to going completely gluten free. Endoscopy was abnormal but inconclusive; basically showed some inflammation - which common with hEDS. I don't have any vitamin deficiency.   Celiac Panel Results: TTG-A <0.5 U/ML Reference Range: 0.5-14.9 U/ML NEGATIVE: <15 POSITIVE: =>15 DGP-A 72.0 U/ML Reference Range: 0.2-14.9 U/ML NEGATIVE: <15 POSITIVE: =>15 TTG-G <0.8 U/ML Reference Range: 0.8-14.9 U/ML NEGATIVE: <15 POSITIVE: =>15 DGP-G 24.0 U/ML Reference Range: 0.4-14.9 U/ML NEGATIVE: <15 POSITIVE: =>15 IgG-A-M Results: IMMUNOGLOBULIN A, QN, SERUM 165 MG/DL Reference Range: 87-352 MG/DL IMMUNOGLOBULIN M, QN, SERUM 164 MG/DL Reference Range: 26-217 MG/DL   What are your thoughts, internet? Are there any questions I should be asking the PA? Thanks!

      By Roses8721 · Posted

      Help. I’m spiraling. Years of extensive symptoms:  What could this be? Years of: Mildly elevated alk and alt Fatty liver Random days of feeling like I’m coming down w flu but no fever and nobody else in house sick Intermittent diarrhea Severe abdominal distension Long history of cavities and enamel deficiency Sound sensitivity Anxiety and depression Low libido Sun skin allergy Frequent fatigue ended up seeing PCP because I looked 8 mo preg. Started gluten-free diet then celiac serology negative. SW GI Dr dx me w celiac as I had been in bed for 3 days after eating gluten after cutting. GI said not to do biopsy because it was clear what was going on and added to chart. My spiral is not seeing anywhere this is done and want to see if anyone else has dealt w this. If not celiac idk what else I will do. Family history or celiac as well as a death related to this.
